KEEP IT SIMPLE AT THE DFM

Ask any dad what he wants for Father’s Day, and you’ll probably get an answer that sounds something like “It’s Father’s Day?” But don’t let that deter you from showing him the love and respect he deserves. Celebrate him and the other father figures in your life with a weekend visit to the Dallas Farmers Market, featuring great food and drinks he’ll appreciate, live music to unwind to, and, most importantly, time with the people who love him most.

Sit down and catch up over a plate of Hurtado Barbecue’s incredible beef ribs, treating him to a peach bourbon smash. You know you owe him one for something you did in your teen years. Or take him to La Ventana and share delicious ribeye tacos with black angus, tangy chimichurri, and pickled red onions on warm flour tortillas paired with a prickly pear margarita.

Looking for a present? Visit Big Daddy Beard for premium grooming products and expert barber services, or shop online where orders over $75 earns you free shipping. Every purchase (online or in-store) or any haircut enters dad to win a $50 gift card. Entries are now open through Sunday, with the winner announced on Monday, June 22.

Remind him he’s one of a kind by gifting him a sure-to-be-treasured item from Tunsouk. Their stunning chessboards, currently $25 off for Father’s Day, are meticulously carved from sustainably sourced Tunisian olive wood, highlighting the wood’s unique grain patterns. If the kitchen is more his game, they’re also offering 20% off all cutting boards and bowls. The exquisite craftsmanship and natural beauty of each piece ensure he’ll feel as special as he is.

Grab Dad-Worthy Stuff for the Grill

Another option is to head to The Shed to spoil dad with a home-cooked meal full of summer flavors. Peach varieties are rolling in, and blackberries are at Kelly Produce! Choose from our local ranchers providing only the best:

• 413 Farm – USDA certified organic pork, beef, lamb, and chicken
• Hendrix Family Farms – family-operated, affordable, nutritious, and delicious beef and chicken
• JuHa Ranch – grass-fed beef and rabbit
• Lazy R Homestead – pork chops and ribs
• Texas Forest Farms – Texas Wagyu beef steaks and sausages

On Saturday, June 20, and Sunday, June 21, make sure to impress the old man with your grilling skills by picking up some pointers at noon during MD Supper Club’s Grilling Demo and Samples. There’s also our weekly Kids’ Activity from 10:00 a.m. to noon both days, and the Vintage Blue Truck is in Pearl St. Plaza all weekend long for a fun family photo opportunity.

Brick and Mortar Highlight:

Be Delighted by Saint Austin Company

Saint Austin Company opened its Dallas Farmers Market doors in September 2019, and owner Mathew Urquizo hasn’t slowed down since. His entrepreneurial spirit and creative soul drive him to find, or more likely, design one-of-a-kind items and vintage-style treasures meant to elevate the everyday. He loves scouring flea markets across Europe and sourcing antiques from around the world for inspiration, drawn to the tales of people and places behind each piece. He brings these stories back to his shop and weaves them into his own to create moments of joy for his customers.

When you visit, give yourself plenty of time to wander and take in all the curated charm. Mathew’s goal is to help you create a warm, welcoming home that blends a touch of past comfort with a bit of current whimsy. Browse noteworthy stationery, journals, and books. Add a touch of elegance to your space with classic ceramic pieces or high-end permanent botanicals, including breathtaking silk tulips. Throw in some fun with an outrageous textile pillow, sure to make guests giggle. Or display a piece of Mathew-designed handmade art in the form of an exquisitely beaded tea towel on a kitchen hook.

You might see Mathew’s items elsewhere, thanks to Saint Austin Company’s popularity at the Dallas and Atlanta Buyers Markets, including his desk-brightening paperweights found at Anthropologie.com, but every one of his ideas gets its start right here at the DFM Flagship store.

Whether you’re searching for a birthday surprise, a housewarming present, or even a little treat for yourself, make Saint Austin Company your first stop. Right now, they’re featuring July 4th options for creating red, white, and wow table arrangements, along with a Texas-sized selection of uniquely Dallas items.

Come be delighted.
